Lyrics
(Stephen Fearing - 2001/© Fearing & Loathing Music) Rave on captain sir, will you wear the crown? The votes were counted sleight of hand and you won the round Standing present and correct To coronate The King elect We bend the knee, we show respect To the new chief saboteur Rave on for the masses as you lead the way Rave on for the apathy that took the day Either one or else the other Tweedledum or Tweedledumber March in circles to the same drummer And it all becomes a blur Rave on Captain, oh my Captain Sir Rave on for the lawyer and the plain clothes cop Rave unto the nation of the doughnut shop News of you and your secretary More than strictly necessary The loudmouths and the mercenaries We know who they were Rave on Captain, oh my Captain Sir Based on what you are and who you were it was a long shot The high priest of the entrepreneurs it was a long shot another shooting star thrust at the world it was a long shot A long shot Rave on for the drinker living hand to mouth Rave on for the factories that headed south holding court in secrecy The bankrupt play monopoly No mercy, no democracy and no-one breathe a word Rave on Captain, oh my Captain Sir Based on what you are and who you were it was a long shot The high priest of the entrepreneurs it was a long shot another shooting star thrust at the world it was a long shot A long shot Rave on Rave on
